Tod dem Management

The new agile crime novel from Vienna - Chief Inspector Nemecek's second case! A business thriller for anyone navigating the agile field or looking to explore it in an exciting way. Inspiring and thrillingly written, with two detailed glossaries covering the key characters and technical terms.

It’s midsummer in Vienna. Nothing but sun, heat, and sweat. To cool off, Chief Inspector Robert Nemecek and his colleagues Nina Obermayr and Lilly Zukic are assigned unsolved cold cases. However, these old cases are quickly forgotten when a woman bursts into the precinct with a loud murder accusation: her husband was not the victim of an accident, but was murdered. This suspicion sets off a heated journey of discovery that takes Nemecek and his team not only across Austria but also into an international company currently undergoing a profound transformation process.

As in their last case at the Kanban crime scene, the investigations at the microelectronics specialist "Arcos" delve deep into the realms of agility, change, and management. But just as the first suspicions are clarified, the murderous dynamics begin to escalate. Is it really about the company’s history? What role do various legacy issues play in the agile transformation? And why are managers always at the center of it all?.
